Secrets of Sulphur Springs

Griffin: Previously on Secrets of Sulphur Springs...

‐What are you doing here, Dad? ‐You shouldn't be here, Bennett.

None of you should.

Griffin: My grandpa being here,

my dad's acting even weirder than usual.

I know that you asked Harper to stay away from Griffin.

I think it makes sense to keep them apart.

At least for now.

Zoey: This is where we felt one of the cold spots.

We're gonna finally catch that ghost in here.

Zoey: No one else believes us about Savannah's ghost.

Topher: That's what the camera's for?

‐Your funeral. ‐Young Ben: Savannah's different, you know?

Of course, not everyone appreciates that.

Young Jess: I just think this place

would be a whole lot nicer if she'd just...

‐go away. ‐Harper (on phone): Griffin,

my mom didn't just hate Savannah.

She acted on it at the talent show.

And the winner is Ben Campbell!

Harper (on phone): I think she might've actually done something to Savannah.

Harper Marie, you skipped school today?

‐I just got off the phone with your principal. You're grounded. ‐Grounded.

Young Ben: Last big camp event of the summer. Should be fun.

‐I was thinking of skipping it. ‐You have to be there. Trust me.

It'll be a night to... remember.

‐Meteorologist (on TV): ...highs around 90 degrees.

‐Overnight lows in the 50s initially, ‐(banging)

bumping up again towards 70 degrees. Looks like a chance

for spotty rain will continue throughout the day

with a chance of thunderstorms until around 9:00 tonight,

so don't forget your umbrella.

Thanks, Marla. Today marks the anniversary

of one of Sulphur Springs' most notorious

unsolved mysteries. Savannah Dillon

disappeared 30 years ago tonight

following a camp dance at the historic Tremont Hotel.

Dillon's disappearance set off a parish‐wide search

‐involving multiple law enforcement agencies. ‐(click)

Man, I've never been in such a hurry for school to be over.

Me either. I just kept thinking about Savannah.

What time is it?

It's 3:15. The camp dance starts at 8:00.

That gives us less than five hours to go back

and try and save her from...

Just say it. My mom.

We don't know that for sure.

Either way, you'll have to keep an eye on her

‐if I can't make it. ‐Wait, what? You have to come.

I'll try, but it's gonna be tough.

I mean, I am super grounded.

So, now I have to keep an eye out on your mom,

Savannah, and anyone else who looks like they're gonna try

‐and do something bad to her? ‐Possibly.

That stinks. We're better together, you know?

As a team, I mean.

I know what you mean.

‐Harper! ‐One second!

‐Now! ‐(honking)

Griffin!

Griffin: Wow.

‐It's like they're a team now. ‐Harper: Remember,

if I can't make it, you have to go back, okay?

We have to save Savannah.

Why did I let Kirsten talk me into hosting this open mic

‐at the shop? ‐She's a very persuasive woman.

Jess: This is true.

I'm late. Oh, before I forget.

What's this?

Your sister is going through a challenging time right now.

She's... rebelling a bit.

You're putting me in charge?

I'm asking you to keep an eye on her, okay?

She leaves this house for any reason, you call me.

Consider it... done.

And clean up this mess, huh?

Did I just hear Mom leave?

‐You must have excellent hearing. ‐Harper: Did she say

‐when she'd be back? ‐Topher: No.

Why? Going somewhere?

No.

Okay, let's say I do have someplace to be.

‐What's it gonna cost me? ‐What've you got?

Uh... 20 bucks,

and my Scream Stream password.

But you have to really cover for me, okay?

Hm...

‐That is enticing. ‐Just think.

All those super scary zombie flicks Mom won't let you watch.

‐You'll be having nightmares for weeks. ‐Sounds great.

Nice doing business with you.

There you are. What took you so long?

I had to wait for Mom to leave the kitchen.

Parsley?

Rosemary? I told you.

We need sage to cleanse the hotel of Savannah's spirit.

I know, but we're out. So I thought I'd substitute.

‐Chipotle mayo? ‐That's a spice!

It's a condiment! Wyatt, this is important.

I saw it on the news!

Tonight's the anniversary of Savannah's disappearance,

which means she'll probably be haunting this place extra hard.

So, if we don't have sage,

why don't we try something else?

‐Like what? ‐Well,

I guess we could always give her something.

Yes! Like a peace offering!

But, what kind of things did Savannah like?

I don't know, but it better be cheap.

I only have eight dollars and 74 cents.

That's okay. We'll find some good stuff.

‐(clang) ‐(chains rattle)

‐(whooshing) ‐Ah!

Dude, I don't think I'm ever gonna get used to that.

‐(sighs) ‐Dude, did you really just call yourself dude?

‐Uh, yeah, I guess I did. ‐(laughs)

Don't feel bad. You don't wanna know what I said when I felt it.

‐(Griffin grunts) ‐(bangs)

Hurry up. We don't have much time.

The dance is gonna start soon.

Griffin: All the reports say Savannah went missing after the dance,

but they didn't say how soon after.

Right, so all we have to do is stay with her

until we're positive she's safe in her bunk,

while keeping an eye on Jess.

Or anyone else suspicious.

Preferably before my mom gets home from work and grounds me

‐until I'm 28. ‐You make it sound so easy.

Wait,

If they're both going to the dance,

‐we can't crash dressed like this. ‐Don't worry, we're covered.

‐I even brought you something. ‐(opens bag)

A tie?

‐With vampires on it? ‐It's Topher's,

but we won't even need it if we can somehow

‐convince Savannah to skip the dance. ‐Oh! Yeah.

‐I had an idea on that. ‐(unzips bag)

‐A tablet? There's no Wi‐Fi here, remember? ‐I know.

Before I left, I downloaded a video of the local news

from the day Savannah went missing.

‐When she sees it... ‐You think she'll believe it?

Of course. How can we fake an entire news report?

Good point.

But in case she freaks out, be gentle when you show it to her.

Me? Why do I have to do it?

Because I'll be too busy watching my mom.

If you're looking for Savannah, she's not here.

Uh, no, actually.

I was passing by and thought I'd say hey.

Why would you do that? We're not friends.

I know. I just wanted to say, uh...

That's a pretty dress. Big dance tonight, huh?

‐Highlight of the summer. ‐You look great.

Although...

Although?

‐Nothing. Just your makeup. ‐What about it?

Tiny suggestion.

‐(opens bag) ‐It's called Berry Bliss.

Something tells me it'll look amazing on you.

‐Never heard of it. ‐It's new.

Like, really new. (laughs)

I just figured with your complexion and that dress,

it would go amazing.

‐(laughs) Wow! ‐(caps lipstick)

Where'd you get this?

‐My mom, actually. ‐I love it.

Hey, Hermione, um...

do you wanna come to the dance with me tonight?

Yeah! Sure! Uh,

I think I even have something to wear.

But, why me?

Like you said, we're not friends.

Well...

we're not friends yet.

Besides, I can always use a partner in... crime.

Mom. You're home early.

Yeah. Kirsten offered to close up.

Where's your sister?

In her room, asleep.

Guess all that misbehavior kinda wore her out.

Hm, I see.

Well, maybe I'll just pop in and say goodnight.

Oh. Okay.

‐Good night. ‐Good night.

‐(door creaks, shuts) ‐(snoring)
